Al Farouq training camp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The camp had the shape of a big oval. The buildings were made from light construction material, only the kitchen and the officers' building were made from stone. The mosque consisted of straw, the sanitary facilities were made from tin...the training units usually consisted of six to ten people at most.

The Al Farouq training camp, also known as "the airport camp",[1] was an alleged Al-Qaeda training camp near Kandahar, Afghanistan. Camp attendees received small-arms training, map-reading, orientation, explosives training, and other general terrorist and jihad-related skills.

"Ghailani identified the detainee as being present at the al-Faruq Training Camp in Afghanistan where he underwent basic training in 1998 to 1999 before moving on to the front lines in Kabul, Afghanistan."

One of the allegations prepared for Al Ali's Combatant Status Review Tribunal was:

"Detainee traveled to Afghanistan with the intent to attend training at the al Farouq training camp, but the al Farouq training camp, because of changes necessitated after the events on 11 September 2001."

Three of the allegations prepared for Hamdoun's Combatant Status Review Tribunal were:

"The detainee was at the al Farouq camp and was trained on explosives, chemicals, pistols and rifles plus assassination methods. He also trained on how to make poisons at the Kara Karga camp outside of Kabul."

"The detainee observed Usama Bin Laden while at the training camp and listened to his speeches on politics and religion."

Two of the factors prepared for Al Shabli's Administrative Review Board, justifying his continued detention, was:

"In August 2001, the detainee flew from San'a Yemen to Iran. He traveled through Iran to Herat, Afghanistan and then on to Qandahar. The detainee was recruited to go to al Farouq training camp by a Mujahedin fighter who had fought in Afghanistan."

Three of the factors prepared for Al Harbi's Administrative Review Board, justifying his continued detention, were:

"After arriving in Afghanistan, the detainee trained at the al Farouq training camp."

"At the al Farouq training camp, he received training on the Kalashnikov rifle and pistols."

"In Quetta, Pakistan, detainee met some Taliban on the street who led the detainee to a guesthouse in Qandahar, where he stayed for a week of questioning and was then sent to the “Faruk camp” for training."

"The detainee received training on the AK-47, RPG's, [sic] grenades and pistols at al Farouq; all of the aforementioned training occurred sometime in September 2001."

One of the factors prepared for Labed's Administrative Review Board, justifying his continued detention, was:

"In September 2001, the detainee attended the al Farouq Training Camp and the surrounding mountain training area for approximately thirteen days. While in the mountains, he received training on the Kalashnikov rile, [sic] Rocket Propelled Grenade and physical training."
